Since the bands inception in 2005, Petty Theft has been entertaining audiences all over the greater Bay Area and beyond in clubs, at private parties and on large festival stages with an electrifying live show. No matter where they play, it's a guaranteed sing along. Audiences everywhere know these classic radio hits and when performed by Petty Theft, it sounds like you are hearing the real deal!

Petty Theft is not an average cover band but an ultimate tribute to one of America's most endearing rock n' roll legends… It's not about costumes and getups, it's all about the music!

Petty Theft continues to build a strong reputation and following as one of the Bay Area's premier tribute bands.

About The Band

Adam "bagel" Berkowitz – Drums: One of PT's newest members, Bagel's musical career is a varied one. He has produced, engineered, mixed and drummed on over 30 albums, one charting at # 39 on the Americana Charts and another recently up to #16 on the CMJ Hip Hop Charts. Bagel was one of 25 "Up and Coming" unsigned drummers across America to receive an endorsement deal with Paiste Cymbals and has toured throughout the Continental U.S. and abroad. A few of the many artists Bagel has or is currently performing with include: Jerry Hannan, Noelle Hampton, Larkin Gayle, The Mother Truckers and The 85's. Besides his infectious groove, Adam is a performer you can't help but watch as he works that kit!

Dan Durkin – Lead vocals, Guitars & Harmonica: Also a founding member of Petty Theft, Dan is a consummate lead singer and front-man who makes everyone feel like they were invited to the party and whose powerful vocals carry the room wherever they go. Dan also founded Marin County bands Frontline and East of Eden. His band East of Eden shared the stage with Michael McDonald, Chris Isaak, Bruce Hornsby and even drummer Pete Best of The Beatles. His left-handed/upside-down guitar playing fascinates audiences and has other guitarists scratching their heads wondering how the heck he does that.

Django Bayless – Bass & Vocals: Besides being a founding member of Petty Theft, Django has performed in many Marin County bands most notably Sapphire, Triad, and Gahundza in the late 80's and early 90's. Django also performs with The 85's (80's tribute band). Django solidifies the rhythm section with his steady bass playing and anchors the vocals with his pristine high harmonies.

Monroe Grisman – Guitar, Vocals: An accomplished veteran of the Bay Area music scene Monroe has performed with numerous local bands that have toured both domestically and abroad. Currently Monroe works as a Producer and session musician on local and international recording projects and is a member of one of the Bay Area's most promising original rock bands American Drag. He also performs with The 85's (80's tribute band). Monroe brings an aggressive edge to PT with his electrifying solos and stage presence.

Mike Emerson – Keyboards: Our newest member has performed extensively throughout the United States, Europe and Canada with a wide range of musicians---James Armstrong, Christine Lakeland, Zigaboo Modeliste , The Gluey Brothers, Johnny Dyer, Daniel Castro, Thad Beckman and Will Ray, to name but a few. His Hammond B3 and piano stylings can be heard on many independent recordings (Jessica Will, Brigitte Demeyer and on James Armstrong's latest release on Hightone Records, "Got it Goin' On".

Michael Papenburg – Guitar: Michael is a Bay Area native who has been playing in local bands since the early eighties. The list of artists he has worked with includes Cameron Ember, Brittany Shane, The GoldDiggers, The Welcome Matt, Hey! Brontosaurus, Sebastian, Penelope Houston, Matt Nathanson, Lilyvolt, The Mad Cattle Ensemble, Orange, and Missile Harmony. He loves playing slide guitar and has been a fan of Tom Petty since he bought "Breakdown" on 45 when it was first released.
